Marcel, 

I can't reach your rsync mirror, so I'm pulling you off rotation till the issues is fixed.

Admin email for 212.79.254.44 doesn't exist, removing mirror completely.

ftp for rsync://213.204.195.9/gentoo-portage/ is the same as ftp://mirror.scarlet-internet.nl/pub/gentoo/

They seem to have dropped the gentoo mirror

Hi,

rsync5.nl is up again (212.79.254.44). Email used to be company email, you can use [e-mail] for further notifications. Also removed from accesslist of rsync1.us, suggest to enable this first so we can sync up.

Any update on this ?

hi,

since there is no update on this, please close it. we removed the mirror from 212.79.254.44.

Hi Frido,

I'm sorry for the lack of response, we've recently taken on more volunteers (me!) to help with mirror management and I've only just spotted this.

Once a mirror has been removed from rsync1.us.gentoo.org it's "usual" for them to sync up elsewhere so we can regularly test things are online + not lagging for a week or two before adding back to the DNS rotation.

Marking as resolved, as requested.  Thanks for your service as a mirror.

Alex
